This is interesting. The main use cases seem to be large computations, since HTTP calls would be more expensive any almost any routine operation.

Placeholders do not get submitted with forms AFAIK. So I don't see what that has to do with autocomplete.

I'm on the latest public Chrome release (39.0.2171.95) and it does not force autocomplete. I also use 1Passsword but for addresses and other non-password fields I use Chrome's autocomplete.

I'm not qualified to comment on BPG, but this is the first I've heard of Mr. Bellard. I enjoy reading works from minds of this caliber. He seems to be a model citizen for the programming community. Are there others I should know

I recently spent a good portion of 2 weeks working on a documentation strategy for my company, so I have a lot to say on this topic. It is a daunting task and this site definitely nails some of the pain points and offers great starting ste

I might get downvoted for this but I have two meta-questions: I assume BT is a European (or British) ISP? Is "seppuku" a common analogy people use? I just looked it up and was a bit surprised at the result.

2 years ago I was exploring frameworks for an enterprise project. I tried Batman along with most others, I can easily see why building your own framework would have been an option any earlier than that. Most frameworks weren't even at

Can we please drop the "cool kids" cliche? It's a tired generalization. Clearly at this point both architectures work, it's childish to see this as an argument for server-side rendering. Obviously it works, so do client

At the moment breaking a monolithic app into modules has little benefit, but is theoretically a beneficial practice to take advantage of future Angular features. I'm speculating but my guess would be some sort of lazy-loading system w

Some reasonable points here but overall it feels like I'm reading tips (with examples) from 2005. The final point about JS made me cringe... "My home page goes from 31,803 bytes to 71,488 because of the JavaScript I've adde

AFAIK Breeze doesn't support < IE9 which is why I can't use it for certain client projects.

I do both enterprise and one person dev studio work and use Git for both. When I do personal development or small side projects I could care less about my history being clean. Nothing is ever so large or complex that it needs to be fixed in

I quickly discovered the same things about SVG/Canvas when I tried to use it for a game board. It was a casual project so I didn't search too hard for other options but I'll take a look at your list you provided. Thanks!
